With advances in digital technologies, Hollywood should be a little worried about the nerds. Notwithstanding the sanctity of property rights, these nerds CAN recut a film to their liking, upload it to a site, and THAT version may take hold and trump the "original" version.

The Star Trek franchise recently came down like a bag of hammers on a fan film production because (1) their preview looked like the best Star Trek people had seen in years and (2) it looked better than the "subscription" show they were getting off the drawing boards. They put in all sorts of draconian rules that basically make it impossible to do fan productions anymore.

As to the quality of the promo that started that, judge for yourself: Prelude to Axenar
